Package Itinerary

Day 01Arrive Mahe

Upon arrival in Mahe, transfer to your hotel. The 115 granitic and coralline islands making up the Seychelles archipelago are uniquely spectacular, ringed by white sandy beaches washed by the waves of the Indian Ocean, and covered with lush tropical vegetation, including a wide variety of palm & spice & fruit trees. Over Night stay at Mahe.

Day 02Mahe - Praslin

Wake up to the sound of the waves lashing gently against the shores and the chirping of the birds. Enjoy a delicious and relaxed breakfast at the Hotel. After breakfast depart from the Mahe hotel and transfer to port to catch the ferry for Praslin. Reach at Port and transfer to your hotel in Praslin. Rest of the day is at leisure. Over Night stay at Praslin.

Day 03Half Day Valle De Maie & Anse Lazio

After B/F, enjoy the very best of both worlds: those of the ocean and one of Seychelles’ twin, UNESCO World Heritage Sites – the mysterious, primaeval valley known as the Vallée de Mai. Visit the world-famous site where the legendary Coco-de-Mer, the double-lobed coconut in the form of a woman’s pelvis, grows in twilight beneath a towering canopy of palms. Swimming and snorkelling in the crystal waters of this divine beach are a once in a lifetime experience. Over Night stay at Praslin.

Day 04Praslin to La Digue

After B/F, you will be picked up from your hotel and taken to the small Baie St. Anne jetty to catch the ferry over to La Digue. On arrival, you will be met and guided to one of the few taxis on the island and transferred with your luggage to the resort. Over Night stay at La Digue.

Day 05Explore La Digue

After B/F, visit some of the beautiful white sandy beaches here; there are some real gems you can find which are really quiet by cycling around. The bikes have baskets so you can easily store your snorkelling gear, as there are some wonderful spots for some excellent snorkelling. Over Night stay at La Digue.

Day 06La Digue to Mahe

After B/F, check-out from the hotel and transfer to Mahe. Upon arrival, check in the hotel. Rest of the day is for leisure. Over Night stay at Mahe.

Day 07Mahe Visit

After B/F, enjoy a full day discovery tour of Mahe. Visit to the court buildings, museum, post office, clock-tower [twin of the one outside London's Victoria Station]. A turn around the corner takes one to the 'Codevar' building where local crafts, including the renowned Kreol or [Creole Gold] are on display for sale. A walk across Albert Street leads one to the focal point of the town, its colorful market where stalls of fresh fish, tropical fruits & vegetables, herbs & spices, are displayed in an abundance of fragrances. This is followed by a drive across the Sans Soucis mountain pass, with a photo stop at the historical Mission Lodge, en-route to a Creole restaurant for lunch. After lunch, the tour continues around the southern tip of the island to the restored colonial plantation of 'Jardin du Roi', which is steeped in the short history of the Creoles as well as the Georges family, whose family tree apparently carries a link to Louis XVII of France. A cold drink of home-grown fruit welcomes visitors before they tour the surrounding plantation of vegetables, exotic fruits, herbs and spices. The rest of the evening is for relaxation, with a stop at the Craft Village on the way back to the hotel. Over Night stay at Mahe.
